Toys At The Office

by Kim on June 3rd, 2006

Well, haven’t yet started my heroic attempt at fixing things around the house myself, as I said I would. The first DIY project was to have been the exerior molding of my dining room windows…which have become embarrassingly decrepit in the last 2 years.

However, it clearly states on my can of “Ready Strip” that it has to be 67 degrees fahrenheit in order to use the product. Not to mention that it’s been raining for 3 days. Perfect reasons to delay the project don’t you think? (read: procrastination)

So I did what any handyperson-challenged gal would do, I began to shop on-line. Which is, it occurs to me, procrastinating while procrastinating.

But instead of buying the new Bobbi Brown blush that I’ve been wanting, I came across a snippet about CNET’s Veronica Belmont (electronics industry geek)–who demonstrates for ZDNet.com how to transform an iPod into a voice recorder, a laser pointer and a language translator–giving you the business justification you need to use the music player at the office.

Each of these slight tune-ups, requires a specific accessory for the ipod, but unless you’re walking around the halls listening to Cold Play during working hours…what is there to justify?

A laser pointer? I ask you. This device has procrastination (read: playtime at work) written all over it.

Maybe I’ll scrape tomorrow.
